How to make edible BOMB~Winter Wednesday

This is a fun and easy Malaysia traditional cake that children can participate in the making at the kitchen. In Malaysia it is known as 'Kuih Bom Keledek' which literally translate as Sweet potatoes Bomb Cake. It is quick to prepare about 45 minutes (psst...my first time). Maybe less for a pro. I got the recipe from CikManggis. CikManggis said not to worry as it won't explode. I am obsess about sweet potatoes this week since we harvested some last weekend. In this cold winter weather,working in the kitchen looks more inviting than the garden at the moment. This cooking made enjoyable teatime of hot bombs and hot tea in this cold middle of winter season. Lets make some bomb.

Mr.H~I think you will have the chance and fun experimenting making bombs! You can use pumpkin too instead of sweet potatoes.

Phoebe~ Had too much with those bombs with tea. I probably have to watch my waistline.

Cikmanggis~Dekat Malaysia mesti lagi cepat dapat hasil :).

Holly~ Sesame seeds made them more crunchy.

Stephanie~ Have fun!

Veggie Gnome~ You don't need the kids but I borrow you both of my boys anytime hehehe...the sheep will stay away as far as they can from the excited screaming.

Mrs Bok~Don't worry. This should be ok its relatively safe not like frying fish. I know how you feel, I am not good at baking and consistantly worried that something will burst out from the oven. Bit by bit I got braver using the oven.

takaeko~ You can grow them from young shoots of sweet potato plants. If anyone have established sweet potato plants you can ask them to cut a bit at the tips.

Cat-from-Sydney~Macam inti kuih ketayapkan? Next time will try thanks for the idea.

Catmint~ Balls will be a nice name too. Any interesting name that attracts the kids too make them.

Veggiegobbler~Its very nice too eat them when they are warm especially in this cold winter.

Gooseberry Jam~ Hope this is something all your family will really enjoy.

We have started gardening for about 4 years now since I had my first pregnancy scan with Rayyan and he was diagnose with cardiac defect.We want our children to know where veggies come from and eat vegetable which is chemical free. Furthermore taste the true flavour of heirloom vegetables and fruits. Our gardening adventure started in Adelaide (blog archive 2010-2012) with Mediterranean / Warm Temperate Climate. Now we grow our own food in Tropical Climate in a green zone 20 less kilometre away from the Malaysia capital city Kuala Lumpur.
